Engineering Manager (EM)
Goal: a) Architecture and upkeep the service, b) Hire and build the best possible team. (UpKeep translates to having a highly scalable and reliable service that has not downtime)
It's a three-dimensional thinking of keeping technology, people and the organization in mind. The development team reports to the engineering manager. The EM in conjunction with the technical architects on the team come up with coding standards, technologies that need to be used, architectural patterns, heuristics of the services and finally the vision for the microservice(s) as it evolves.
An Engineering Manager also focus a lot of their time on hiring for their team especially in recent days when devs move around quite a bit. Basically hiring, firing and performance and expectation management. A great deal of effort is also spent in coaching and honing the talent you already have.
